The spring flood waters that ravaged the Kirk family’s basement are long gone, but life is still not back to normal at the family home.

“The flood ended, but we’re still dealing with it,” said Ann Kirk, whose Field Street home sustained extensive mold damage in the aftermath of the floods that hit the region this spring. “It’s a constant reminder.”

With the family’s resources exhausted and considerable work remaining to be done, the Kirks got help from the Southeastern Massachusetts Long-Term Recovery Group — an alliance between FEMA, MEMA, AmeriCorps, the United Way, the American Red Cross, and several faith-based groups and regional non-profit organizations. Volunteers worked at the home Thursday to perform mold remediation.

“I feel like a bunch of angels are at the house today,” Kirk said.

Kirk said she and her husband Ed have fallen on hard times. She has been out of work since the spring, and the couple’s 11-year-old son Johnathan was diagnosed with a medical condition that requires him to use a feeding tube. The boy’s weakened immune system combined with the daily changing of the feeding tube have left him at an increased risk of infection by mold spores.

The finished basement had been the bedroom of the Kirks’ 16-year-old daughter, Leah.

The health concerns surrounding Johnathan Kirk, however, made the situation on Field Street serious.

Paula Farrales, who works for the American Red Cross, called the flood damage a “silent disaster,” an assessment with which Magoon agreed.

“You don’t see it from the outside, so you don’t know it’s there,” Magoon said.

Performing the relief work falls in line with the mission of the faith based groups involved in the effort, said Doug Spanks, who represented the New England United Methodist Church.

”We’re getting more team oriented as this goes along,” he said. “It takes a bunch of faith-based groups, government groups and volunteer groups. It has to be a group, otherwise it’s not going to get done.”
